Error: No converter found capable of converting from type JPA Model type to Custom object [Model]

Question

1. This is my pojo class.

public class Payload {

private Clob paylaod;


public Clob getPaylaod() {
    return paylaod;
}

public void setPaylaod(Clob paylaod) {
    this.paylaod = paylaod;
}

}

2. This is my entity class.

@Entity
@Table(name ="ORDER")
@Data
@Getter
@Setter
@AllArgsConstructor
@NoArgsConstructor
@Builder
public class Model implements Serializable {
    
        @Id
        @Column(name = "REQUEST_ID", nullable = false, unique = true)
        private String requestId;

        @Column(name = "VERSION")
        private BigDecimal version;

        @Column(name = "SOURCE")
        private String source;

        @Column(name = "SOURCE_ID")
        private String sourceId;
        
        @Lob
        @Column(name = "PAYLOAD")
        private Clob  payload;
}

3.This is my repository.

public interface OrderRepository extends JpaRepository<Model, String>
{
    
    @Query(value="SELECT PAYLOAD FROM ORDER WHERE REQUEST_ID = ?",nativeQuery = true)
    Payload getDetailsById(String requestId);
}

4. Below is controller class.

@RestController
@RequestMapping("/v1/order-data/Order")
public class OrderController {
    
    @Autowired
    OrderRepository repository;
    
    
    @GetMapping("/getDetailsById/{requestId}")
    public Payload getDetailsById(@PathVariable("requestId") String id) {
        return  repository.getDetailsById(id);
    }
    
}

4.Getting Below error:

Answer 1

You're running a native query and not a JPA query and that's why the return type of getDetailsById(String requestId) is Object[] and not Clob or Model. Let's say your entity has 4 columns then object[0] will return the first column, object[1] will return the second column, and so on.

I'd suggest not to take away good things by using native queries. Just use JPA query and be happy:)

Modify your method signature the following way

public interface OrderRepository extends JpaRepository<Model, String>
{
    @Query(value="SELECT o.payload FROM ORDER o WHERE o.requestId = ?1")
    Payload getDetailsById(String requestId);
}

Answer 2

I think the return type of your method getDetailsById() is Payload instead of Clob, change that and try to run. that might work.

Answer 3

Because there's no relation between the payload Entity and the Model entity,Model entity have a CLOB type payload NOT an entity,so what you can do is add a relation between the two Entities as follows, so you can request the Payload with the specific request_id,since here it will hold the request_id as a foreign key in the db table,here's a snippet example:

@Entity
public class Payload {
 
 @Lob
 private Clob paylaod;
 
 @OneToOne
 @JoinColumn(name="request_id")
 private Model model;

 public Clob getPaylaod() {
  return paylaod;
 }

 public void setPaylaod(Clob paylaod) {
  this.paylaod = paylaod;
 }
}

and in your Model class have a relation to it lets say OneToOne as follows:

@Entity
@Table(name ="ORDER")
@Data
@Getter
@Setter
@AllArgsConstructor
@NoArgsConstructor
@Builder
public class Model implements Serializable {

    @Id
    @Column(name = "REQUEST_ID", nullable = false, unique = true)
    private String requestId;

    @Column(name = "VERSION")
    private BigDecimal version;

    @Column(name = "SOURCE")
    private String source;

    @Column(name = "SOURCE_ID")
    private String sourceId;
    
  
    @OneToOne(mappedBy="model")
    private Payload payload;

}

now you can use a native query or a JPQL query to retrieve what you want,eg:

@Query(value="select * from payload where 
payload.request_id=:requestId",nativeQuery=true)
Payload findByRequestId(@Param("requestId") String requestId);

hope this helps !
